an earth-focused character

[bolower]

Hi,

I always wanted to play an earth-focused character. I thought to a dwarfish/gnomish cleric with earth and cavern domain. For the PC why not the deep diviner.

Anyone have a suggestion?

I heard about the stonecaller (in The Slayer's Guide to Duergars, from d20 system), does anybody know this PC?

have you checked out Races of Stone? They have some good things in there from what I recall.

Finding a way to gain the earth subtype would also be pretty cool Elemental savant can do so I believe, or something much like it.

I'll second that. Some great flavour and crunch in there for earth-based casters in particular. There's feats, skills, spells and PrCs.

I believe that I'm going to play a gnome because they are closer to the nature and their powers are useful.

He will have the cavern domain and the earth domain.

Scion and Legildur, i'd like to adapt the racial substitution from race of stone for a priest gnome... but I need some help

From dwarf cleric : earthen spell power (here no problem)
From goliath druid : elemental bond (it's ok also)
From dwarf sorceror : power of stone ( :\ )
From dwarf sorceror : earth meditation ( )

With that, it could be balanced and very interresting to play it.

I think of favoring his constitution and his wisdom, and the skills: craft (stonemasonry, gem cutting, potery), knowledge (nature) and mining.

Animal friends ( badger ) seems has good feat.

Has Anybody a PC to be proposed? Because these of races of stone is not very good, I think. (Earth dreamer has only 5 lvl).

Scion, I saw the Elemental savant... it's no bad.

Svirfneblin are a good choice for mewho like playing gnomes but with a more serious outlook. Nonetheless, there is +3 ELC... is it possible to play a deep gnome without being too powerful ?

Help me please, to save a gnome from perils !

Earth Dreamer (Races of Stone) is a pretty easy class to pick up and gives you some nifty earth related abilities. Coming from cleric, you'd lose BAB and hp, while coming from wizard you'd have to invest in a good wisdom to meet the prereqs, but neither of these losses is too onerous unless you're trying to play a melee cleric. You get things like a divination ability, tremorsense out to 10', the ability to see through stone, and eventually the earth glide ability of an earth elemental. It has full spellcasting progression.

And why not a half elemental....

Stonelord from (CW) is a pretty good PrC for an earth focused character.

There's also the Divine Crusader (CD), just pick a nature-type god with the Earth domain.
